Poppy's Quilt

Another baby quilt for a special little girl x

Peachy Princesses and the Pea

A peachy princess quilt, made with a mixture of gauze and quilting cotton which was really hard to work with, but worth it for my perennial favourite Heather Ross prints. The blocks were designed to show off the print of the princess perched atop her huge bed of quilts. Kind of how my kids were starting to look!

For Queen and Country Quilt

I made this quilt quickly and with tears for my brother to take to Afghanistan. He had two tiny kids, one a  newborn, and a, thankfully, strong wife. The news was full of terrible statistics, we all worried every moment of that 6 months. The quilt, and He, came home in one piece. We felt lucky.

Little Town Quilt

I made this quilt by improv piecing each little house based on pictures my kids made of a town.

They included factories and little thatched cottages and so much more detail than I might have conjured up for myself. This quilt was inspired by one I saw that year at the Festival of Quilts.

Hope Valley Baskets Quilt

Oh how I loved making this quilt and it remains one of my all time favourites today, as does this fabric line by Denyse Schmidt. Made using the baskets pattern in Quilts!Quilts!!Quilts!!! book ( a well thumbed book by now!) I loved the colours and the process involved in this quilt. I consider this quilt the beginning of my style now.

Feedsack Butterfly Quilt
